Public schools are closed for the summer in Utah, leaving their libraries quieter than usual. In this case, the titles in question are the Bible and the Book of Mormon. Utah is home to the world headquarters of the church and has the nation’s highest concentration of members of that faith. Both complaints followed the passage of state legislation prohibiting “pornographic or indecent” materials in public school settings. The December challenge against the Bible, which was reported by The Salt Lake Tribune, dripped with sarcasm.
